Description

Technical Field

[0001] This application relates to the field of automated welding technology, specifically a tin pulling mechanism. Background Art

[0002] As the most commonly used welding material in the electronic production industry, solder wire is not only used for manual welding, but also plays a crucial role in the process of automated welding. In an automated welding device, a tin pulling mechanism is used to pull the solder wire to move and achieve automated welding.

[0003] In order to solve the problems of cumbersome control and poor stability of the existing tin pulling mechanism, the prior art (Chinese utility model with publication number CN103567670A) discloses a solder wire pulling device that uses a cylinder to control the whole process, with a simple control structure and stable operation; it ensures that the length of each section of solder wire is consistent. However, during the operation of automated welding, generally, after the clamping piece clamps the solder wire, the cylinder pulls the solder wire to move, and then heats the solder wire for welding. However, the part of the solder wire clamped by the clamping piece will not be melted. When the clamping piece opens for the reset action after welding is completed, the solder wire waste remaining in the clamping piece may fall from the clamping piece onto the workpiece, resulting in poor welding, short circuit, equipment damage, and increased production costs, etc., or the solder wire waste remaining in the clamping piece still adheres to the clamping piece without falling, and the remaining solder wire will interfere with the normal closing and clamping actions of the clamping piece, resulting in insecure or inaccurate clamping, thereby affecting the positioning and movement of the solder wire for the next welding. Summary of the Utility Model

[0005] To achieve the above purpose, this application provides the following technical solution: A tin pulling mechanism includes an axial movement unit, and a tin pulling part is connected to the moving end of the axial movement unit. The tin pulling part includes a first vertical plate fixedly connected to the moving end of the axial movement unit, a second cylinder and a slide rail fixedly connected to one side of the first vertical plate, a slide seat fixedly connected to the slide rail, and a first cylinder jaw fixedly connected to one side of the slide seat. The telescopic end of the second cylinder is fixedly connected to one side of the slide seat;

[0006] A waste transfer unit is connected to one side of the first vertical plate.

[0010] In one embodiment, a pressure wheel is connected to one side of the vertical plate 2, and a tension adjustment part is connected to one side of the vertical plate 2.

[0011] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of the present application are as follows:

[0012] In the present application, by providing a waste transfer unit, the cylinder 3 can push the sliding plate and the cylinder jaw 2 to move.

[0019] Embodiment:

[0020] Please refer to Figures 1-3 , the present application provides a technical solution: a tin pulling mechanism, including an axial movement unit 2, a tin pulling part 3 is connected to the moving end of the axial movement unit 2, and the tin pulling part 3 includes a vertical plate 1 31 fixedly connected to the moving end of the axial movement unit 2, a cylinder 2 32 fixedly connected to one side of the vertical plate 1 31 and a slide rail 34, a slide seat 33 fixedly connected to the slide rail 34, a cylinder jaw 1 35 fixedly connected to one side of the slide seat 33, and the telescopic end of the cylinder 2 32 is fixedly connected to one side of the slide seat 33. One end of the tin wire can be clamped by the cylinder jaw 1 35. After the cylinder jaw 1 35 clamps one end of the tin wire, control the cylinder 2 32 to work. When the cylinder 2 32 extends, it can drive the slide seat 33 and the cylinder jaw 1 35 to move to the right, so as to stretch the tin wire and facilitate the tin melting welding of the welding equipment;

[0021] The axial movement unit 2 includes a support plate 21, two guide rails 25 symmetrically fixed to the upper end of the support plate 21, two sliders 22 slidably connected to the two guide rails 25 respectively, a mounting plate 24 fixed to the upper ends of the two sliders 22, and a first cylinder 23 fixed to the upper end of the support plate 21. The telescopic end of the first cylinder 23 is fixedly connected to one side of the mounting plate 24. A waste recycling port 1 is provided at the lower end of the support plate 21. The telescopic movement of the first cylinder 23 can drive the sliders 22 and the mounting plate 24 to move back and forth, which is convenient for adjusting the position of the entire tin pulling mechanism and facilitating the adjustment of the position of the tin pulling mechanism according to the welding head so that the pulled tin wire can be located below the welding head.

[0022] A waste transfer unit 4 is connected to the side of the first vertical plate 31. The waste transfer unit 4 includes a third cylinder 41 fixed to one side of the first vertical plate 31, a push plate 42 fixedly connected to the telescopic end of the third cylinder 41, a sliding plate 43 slidably connected to the upper end of the third cylinder 41, and a second cylinder gripper 44 fixed to the upper end of the sliding plate 43. The upper end of the push plate 42 is fixedly connected to the lower end of the sliding plate 43. After the welding equipment melts the elongated tin wire and welds it to the workpiece, the third cylinder 41 works and contracts to drive the sliding plate 43 to move forward, making the second cylinder gripper 44 move forward. At this time, the second cylinder 32 is controlled to contract. The contraction of the second cylinder 32 can drive the sliding seat 33 and the first cylinder gripper 35 to move to the left. When the first cylinder gripper 35 moves to the right side of the second cylinder gripper 44, it stops. The second cylinder gripper 44 works to perform a closing action to clamp the tin wire waste remaining in the first cylinder gripper 35. Then the third cylinder 41 works and extends to drive the sliding plate 43 and the first cylinder gripper 35 to move backward, so that the tin wire waste clamped by the first cylinder gripper 35 moves above the waste recycling port 1. The first cylinder gripper 35 cancels the clamping of the tin wire waste, and the tin wire waste falls into the waste recycling port 1. When the third cylinder 41 extends to drive the tin wire waste to move, the second cylinder 32 continues to contract to drive the sliding seat 33 and the first cylinder gripper 35 to move to the left, so that the first cylinder gripper 35 can clamp the tin wire at the fusing point. After the first cylinder gripper 35 clamps the tin wire, the second cylinder 32 extends again and drives the sliding seat 33 and the first cylinder gripper 35 to move to the right, thereby elongating the tin wire and facilitating the welding equipment to perform tin melting and welding.

[0023] On one side of the first vertical plate 31, a feeding unit 5 is fixedly connected. The feeding unit 5 includes a second vertical plate 51 fixedly connected to one side of the first vertical plate 31, a motor 52 fixedly connected to one side of the second vertical plate 51, a driving wheel 54 rotatably connected to one side of the second vertical plate 51 and fixedly connected to the output shaft of the motor 52, a guiding wheel 56 and a winding wheel 53 rotatably connected to one side of the second vertical plate 51, and a wire guiding frame 58 fixedly connected to one side of the second vertical plate 51. On one side of the second vertical plate 51, a pressing wheel 55 is connected, and on one side of the second vertical plate 51, a tension adjusting part 57 is connected. The solder wire is wound around the winding wheel 53. The solder wire sequentially passes through the driving wheel 54, the tension adjusting part 57, the guiding wheel 56 and finally enters the wire guiding frame 58. One end of the solder wire passes out of the wire guiding frame 58. The pressing wheel 55 presses the solder wire against the driving wheel 54, so that the solder wire can be in full contact with the driving wheel 54. When the motor 52 works, it can drive the driving wheel 54 to rotate, thereby providing a force to assist the movement of the solder wire and making the pulling of the solder wire smoother.
